Semcon secures new orders – nearly doubles its operations in Brazil

Report this content

Semcon has secured three orders from a prominent provider in the mobility sector and is supporting the customer’s green transition as a strategic technology partner. The new orders cover services in the areas of e-Mobility, production, logistics, and quality management.

Semcon has decades of experience of being a partner of choice for OEM customers worldwide, providing expertise in all development phases.

“I am grateful for the confidence the customer has shown in us as a technology partner. Semcon is at the forefront of developments in the sector, and we have many valuable perspectives to contribute to the customer’s green transition,” says Markus Granlund, President and CEO at Semcon.

Country manager Brazil, Fabricio Campos, continues:

“We have a skilled and service-oriented team, and I am very proud that we have earned this trust from the customer. I look forward to developing our operations even further to support the industry needs for future mobility.”

Semcon will support the customer in several different areas of expertise, including electrification, manufacturing, logistics and quality management. The three new orders have a value of approximately BRL 248 million (approximately SEK 472 million with a SEK/BRL rate of 1.90) over a three-year period. In conjunction with the new orders, Semcon takes over approximately 350 employees, thereby nearly doubling the size of its current workforce in Brazil. Approximately 75% of the new employees joined Semcon in the beginning of May, while the remaining 25% joined in the beginning of July.

“At Semcon, we take great pride in being a people company, and for two consecutive years we have been recognised as a 'Great Place to Work' in Brazil. We are excited about welcoming all the new Semcon employees and look forward to ensuring that they have a great start with us,” says Josie Cautela, HR manager Brazil.

Future mobility requires the implementation of emerging technologies to ensure a future in which vehicles are connected, electrified and sustainable. The sector is undergoing its greatest transformation yet, and many providers are striving for circularity and are committed to becoming net-zero within the foreseeable future. Semcon is dedicated to supporting this transformation by contributing its expertise and experience.
